Lexbe provides eDiscovery software and services for legal professionals at law firms, corporations, and government agencies.
In this white paper, Lexbe briefly describes a demonstration conducted to evaluate the speed and effectiveness of the Lexbe eDiscovery Processing System (“LEPS”) to process and convert the EDRM Enron Dataset: a standardized real-life large collection of email and attachments to TIFF: a format commonly used for document review by law firms in popular litigation document review applications, and a notoriously slow and difficult conversion to make. Lexbe provides background for the eDiscovery industry, outlines the goals of the study, describes the methodology used in the demonstration, and, finally, summarizes the results.
LEPS converted the entire 53 GBs of the EDRM Enron Dataset, with 5 million page equivalents, into industry-standard TIFF images in only 5.3 hours. To accomplish this task in this short time, LEPS programmatically deployed and utilized over 60 parallel server instances, and maintained a sustained throughput rate of 240 GBs/day (23 Million pages/day) for Native to TIFF processing. This is a substantial increase in industry TIFFing capability. By comparison, an existing industry leader, Xerox Litigation Services, has a company-wide capacity of 5 Million pages per day, or less than 25% of Lexbe’s capacity.
